I wrote a script that manages services on the server and starts/stops etc...depending on the Task in the csv file, as well as changes the startuptype, again depending on the start up type in the csv file.
CSV file:
Server,Service,Startup Type,Task
server1,SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER),automatic,start
server2,"SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER), SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) CEIP",Manual,stop
Script
$csvFile = Import-CSV .\SSAS_services.csv
$ServiceState = Get-Service -Name
$ServiceStartupType = Get-Service | select -property name,starttype
ForEach ($row in $csvFile)
{
#checking if service in csv file exists on server
if (Get-Service $row.Service | Select-Object Name, StartType, Status -ComputerName $row.Server -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)
{
"$row.Service not found on $row.Server!" | out-file .\SSAS_services.txt -Append
}
else
{
Get-Service $row.Service | Select-Object Name, StartType, Status -ComputerName $row.Server | select machinename,name | format-table -AutoSize
}
# Change the service on the server
if ($row.Task -eq "stop" -and $row.Server $ServiceState $row.Service -ne "stop")
{
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Stop-Service $using:row.Service } -ComputerName $row.Server -ArgumentList $row
Start-Sleep 60
}
elseif ($row.Task -eq "start" -and $row.Server $ServiceState $row.Service -ne "start")
{
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Start-Service $using:row.Service } -ComputerName $row.Server -ArgumentList $row
Start-Sleep 60
}
elseif ($row.Task -eq "pause" -and $row.Server $ServiceState $row.Service -ne "pause")
{
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Suspend-Service $using:row.Service } -ComputerName $row.Server -ArgumentList $row
Start-Sleep 60
}
elseif ($row.Task -eq "Restart")
{
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Restart-Service $using:row.Service } -ComputerName $row.Server -ArgumentList $row
Start-Sleep 60
}
#changing startup type if different
if ($row."Startup Type" -eq $ServiceStartupType -ComputerName $row.Server)
{
"Changing Startup Type from '$ServiceStartupType' to $row.'Startup Type'"
Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { Set-Service $using:row.Service -StartupType $using:row."Startup Type" } -ComputerName $row.Server -ArgumentList $row

The if statement with -and $row.Server $ServiceState $row.Service -ne "stop" isn't valid powershell syntax (the expression should evaluate to boolean). You have write a function or use invoke-expression to evaluate the service state.
E.g.
$serviceName = "WSearch"
$command = "get-service $serviceName"
if ((invoke-expression $command).Status -eq "Running") {
# do something...
}

I'm trying to access the service status of the remote server. i wrote this

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-Service], InvalidOperationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.InvalidOperationException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetServiceCommand
in error. i don't know what i am missing. but when i run without if condition if shows proper output.
$ServerList = Get-Content -Path "c:\users\cont015\Desktop\ServerList.txt"
ForEach ($ServerName in $ServerList)
{
$Status= #(
Get-Service -ComputerName $ServerName -DisplayName "SQL Server (*" |
Select-Object -ExpandProperty Status)
if ("Running" -in $Status)
{
[PSCustomObject]#{
Server = $ServerName
Status = $Status
}
}
else
{
}
}
Explanation:
Get-Service docs: -DisplayName
Specifies, as a string array, the display names of services to be retrieved. Wildcards are permitted (used instead of Where-Object as such filtering is always faster).
Array subexpression operator #( ). -
Returns the result of one or more statements as an array. The result is always an array of 0 or more objects (i.e. force Powershell to always return an array when a call returns only one object or even $null)
Used [PSCustomObject]#{} in output instead of a sequence of strings (learn advantages at Everything you wanted to know about PSCustomObject).
I am seeking help to get output in csv format. I have written powershell code and would want to tweak the output to get in csv format as shown in below pic.
$servers = Get-Content 'C:\Temp\listofservers.txt'
foreach ($server in $servers)
{
#DHCP
if (((Get-Service -ComputerName $server -ServiceName 'DHCPServer' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Status) -eq 'Running')
{
if ((((Get-DhcpServerv4Scope -ComputerName $server | Get-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName $server) | Measure-Object).Count) -ge 1)
{
Write-Host "DHCP present on $server and in use"
}
else
{
Write-Host "DHCP present on $server and not in use"
}
}
else
{
Write-Host("DHCP is not present on $server")
}
#Certificate authority
if (((Get-Service -ComputerName $server -ServiceName 'CertSvc' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Status) -eq 'Running')
{
Write-Host "Certificate Authority is present on $server"
}
else
{
Write-Host "Certificate Authority is not present on $server"
}
}
Send all outputs to a custom object then export them:
$servers = get-content "C:\Temp\listofservers.txt"
$ExportPath = 'c:\temp\results.csv'
$Servers | ForEach-Object {
Write-Host "Checking $_"

Use a hashtable to build your object, adding key/values for each property along the way. Then convert the hashtable to a [PSCustomObject] and output it capturing in a variable ($results). Finally, export it to csv using Export-Csv
$servers = Get-Content 'C:\Temp\listofservers.txt'
$results = foreach ($server in $servers) {
# Create hashtable to build object and add ComputerName property
$output = [ordered]#{ComputerName = $server }
#DHCP

if ((((Get-DhcpServerv4Scope -ComputerName $server |
Get-DhcpServerv4Lease -ComputerName $server) |
Measure-Object).Count) -ge 1) {
# add Dhcp property if present, in use
$output.Add('Dhcp', 'Present, in use')
}
else {
# add Dhcp property if present, not in use
$output.Add('Dhcp', 'Present, not in use')
}
}
else {
# add Dhcp property if not present
$output.Add('Dhcp', 'Not present')
}
#Certificate authority
if (((Get-Service -ComputerName $server -ServiceName 'CertSvc' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Status) -eq 'Running') {
# add CA property if present
$output.Add('CA', 'Present')
}
else {
# add CA property if not present
$output.Add('CA', 'Not present')
}
# Convert hashtable to pscustomobject and output it

Theo is correct, the Param() code needs to be first thing in the script block. You can find more information about script blocks here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_script_blocks?view=powershell-7

Ok, let's see if my second answer gets deleted (with no notification) by people who don't know the topic. I believe you have run a command like this on $job_output (no "s"):
[collections.arraylist]$job_output = #()
Then in the loop at the bottom, an exception is created because a pscustomobject can't be cast to a collections.arraylist with the $job_output variable. $jobs_output (with the "s") is an arraylist of [pscustomobjects]'s created by select.
foreach ($Job_output in $Jobs_Output) {

i have created a powershell script to run image validation remotely and when any of the service found in stopped state this will fail the script.I am getting below error while failing the script.Is there anyway so that I can hide these error from the report?

This is the script i used to fail when the service is in stopped state.

You can always try wrapping stuff in a try/catch block.
try { some powershell stuff }
catch { Write-Host $_ ; or do nothing }
